MEAN MUNCHER: Pizza, pesto and ciao to 2013!

http://meanmuncher.blogspot.com/2013/12/pizza-pesto-and-ciao-to-2013.html

Tuesday, 31 December 2013. Pizza, pesto and ciao to 2013! I was ACTUALLY playing (read: losing) Scrabble when this was taken aka it wasn't set up for kitsch blogger photos. As I touched on in my last post, 2013 has been good to me. I feel more settled now than I ever have done as an adult and during a walk to Lidl to buy some yeast and strong bread flour for this recipe, I had a good think about why. This is what my brain was like from about 2006 – 2012. Six years of anxiety-ridden hell. 2 tbsp olive oil.

MEAN MUNCHER: March 2013

http://meanmuncher.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html

Sunday, 31 March 2013. The Wick At Both Ends - Review. Sadly, an orb floated over the "Ends" bit. I'm perilously close to falling off the wagon with this food blogging malarkey. The horse is racing away and I'm hanging onto the back of my clunky wagon, perhaps with both hands but possibly only one. My legs are certainly flailing though. I've had an awful cold, a super new job (hello any bosses reading this! What am I still doing though? EATING OUT, that's what. GOING UP WEST TO THE WICK. TWABE is more Di...

MEAN MUNCHER: February 2013

http://meanmuncher.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html

Monday, 25 February 2013. Squash and barley salad with balsamic vinaigrette. Last week was mainly formed of intense yet unwanted debates about Oscar Pistorius. My colleague became incredibly absorbed in the trial and as a devoted Oscar fan, she took it upon herself to become his Sheffield-based chief defence lawyer ("I love Oscar, me! He's the only reason I went to the Paralympics! After repeated "What do you think? What do you think? Type pestering, I wearily took my place as the reluctant prosecution.

MEAN MUNCHER: January 2013

http://meanmuncher.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html

Sunday, 27 January 2013. Lentil and Halloumi salad. A few weeks ago, I went out with some old friends from college. The meeting came about as a sort of reunion between me (2010 – 2012 spent sitting in various bedrooms on my laptop) and R (2010 – 2012 spent backpacking her way across the world and then living in Australia, where she long-boarded to work and got her nose pierced). I was worried that R might come back to the. Luckily, she was still R – funny, nice and normal! Immediately, I realise what a s...

Sunday, 30 December 2012. Caramelised Onion Cheese Toastie. 2012 Twenty Twelve. Two thousand and twelve (no one says that, it’s so unbrandable). It’s been a year, hasn’t it? Well, not just any year but a year with one extra day! What did you do with that extra non-day? In the middle section of the year, a miasma of happiness and togetherness forcibly descended onto the. But forget about the Olympics and the Jubilee and the end of the world that didn’t happen and the re-election of Obama and all tha...

MEAN MUNCHER: April 2013

http://meanmuncher.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html

Monday, 1 April 2013. A few years ago, I became aware of one of my many personality flaws: obsessiveness. These are obsessions that sometimes become so frenzied and dogmatic that I could easily be mistaken for a corporate sponsor of the product I'm hooked on. In my defence, some of the obsessions do go on to form life-long habits and endure the test of time: the Tudors, drinking Americanos, The Smiths, Jay-Z, Disney mugs, books (NB: change some of these interests to look less douchey b4 publishing blog).

MEAN MUNCHER: January 2012

http://meanmuncher.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html

Sunday, 29 January 2012. The other week at work, I received a major blow. Whilst pouring myself a glass of Innocent smoothie in the communal kitchen, a man from another office walked up behind me and uttered the crushing line: “Excuse me, are you the cleaner? So, bitterly, I took the erroneous remark by the horns and gave myself a proverbial kick up the arse. Off I marched to. The only good thing about. It seems as if I’m not the only one having an image overhaul; so are the government! The thing is with...
